Letter from Alexander Badlam Jr., 10 February 1892

San Fran. Wilford Woodruff and Wife, My dear Friends:-- Your kind invitation came to hand to-day, and I assure you that nothing would give me greater pleasure than visiting your valley at the date of your honored anniversary, and Mrs. Badlam joins me in the same pleasurable hope that we can do so. Only one thing will prevent it, and that is the illness of my son. He was cured of the Pneumonia and a relapse brought on the grippe, from which he is still confined to his bed, and no one can tell when we can leave him. If he can be left, we will be there to personally congrat- ulate Mrs. Woodruff for such a long life of happiness with so good a man, and to congratulate you upon the possession of so good a wife, and the possession of the love and respect of every man, woman and child that ever came within the circle of your good and honorable influence. May God grant, that your days may be prolonged to the extreme limit of man's life's-span, and that yourself and good wife may find peace in that home for all the good in heart and pure in mind. Very sincerely, Alexander Badlam

Twenty five hundred have emigrated, leaving as near as we can ascertain about 1400 people scattered throughout the mission. The elders visit the saints from time to time, but find many of them luke warm and on account of their poverty are unable to gather out. The greater portion of our people are emigrating to Arizona, Mexico and New Mexico. The remainder are joining their friends in different parts of Utah. Very few are going to Colorado. We think it of vital importance that localities in Arizona, Mexico, and New Mexico are ^should be^ designated so that we can counsel the saints to emigrate to said places. At present the people are in doubt, and we are unable to counsel them. In the past two months we have made great
